"Please note that the museum has moved a spectacular new building at 1100 nw 23rd. You may wonder where your Uber driver is taking you, but rest assured he will be thrilled with what you get to see. The current inaugural exhibition is definitely for adults only. At least some of what is there, however it is quite amazing the
extraordinary range of contemporary Art that is in the space. Incredible sculptures, paintings, drawings, videos. There are two mirrored rooms you can go inside which are quite amazing. Their collection of Keith Haring paintings drawings and sculpture is some of the best I’ve seen. The rebels have collected art from all over the
world and you’ll get to be inspired in 36 different rooms of art. Give yourself plenty of time. There’s also a café and soon a restaurant open up here as well. Here is a small sample." - Gourmetdiner123,

"You must sit outside to appreciate the experience. Our dinners were terrific and our server, a lovely young woman, gave us excellent advice on the food and wines. The liver crostata was divine, as were the lamb ribs as apps. We shared the Orata...incredibly delicious, on a bed of intensely flavourful ferro, highly
recommended. Others enjoyed the Branzino with bok choy. Very exotic new flavours for us. Mostly southern Mediterranean. We loved it!" - tgtoronto,Toronto, Canada

"Finally a bar done right. From head to toe this place amazed me. Drinks - are amazing! Every drink we had was amazing from a simple screwdriver that blew my mind (first screwdriver I’ve ever had with freshly squeezed orange juice ) to the “smile you son of a bit**” which creative touches and flavor were amazing (clever funny
name , small shark gummy on top, and amazing flavor) When you first walk in it is a chill bar scene with relaxing dim lights and high tops then as you proceed further in there is a stage with great live music and entertainment (depending on the night you go it changes). Ever in little Havana and want to be surprised and amazed ?
Stop by and check it out , you won’t regret it ." - James Nall

Stan S, Hollywood, Florida

"Fantastic find while visiting Miami. The inside dining area may be small (outside seating also available), but the food and service are well worth the visit. There is a good wine/craft beer list.

What couples say about Coral Castle

"This is a fascinating, unique place with an interesting history. The tour guides are very informative and entertaining. The way Ed built the place on his own was pretty amazing - he sounded like a brilliant guy. Construction and engineering enthusiasts will really enjoy a visit. The gift shop has some interesting things, and
we bought a set of books about the place so we could read some more about Ed and what he accomplished, including the research he did later in life. This place is well-worth a visit. We came down from Miami beach and spent a few hours at Safari Edventure (do the ITS tour!) and then visited Coral Castle in the afternoon. You can
easily do both in one day without rushing." - TravelingWithDogz, Baltimore, Maryland

"We recently had the opportunity to tour the Coral Castle. It was well worth it and I think should be put on everyone's itinerary when visiting Miami and South Florida. It's such an interesting and beautiful place. The tour guides were great and ever engaging. Our eight year old was hanging on their every word and was
completely fascinated with the castle. It is such an interesting place and so cool to find out the details how all of this was built by one man. I highly recommend this tour and visiting Coral Castle. It's a great place to take beautiful photos as well. Enjoy!" - Southeast Burton

"This surpassed everything I expected it to be! The brilliance of Ed was quiet remarkable. The guides were awesome, full of knowledge and told an exciting story of the life of Ed. A must see if you'e in the are" - CheeseHead1967, Naples, Florida

Out in the Coconut Grove part of the city, The Kampong is a gorgeous little natural haven beloved by locals and visitors alike. Offering the ideal escape from the lively clubs and high-rise hotels that make up much of Miami, this 9-acre botanical garden is open to public visitors by reservation only from Tuesday to Saturday of each
week. It's a lovely spot to enjoy some privacy, intimacy, and romance with someone special, home to some gorgeous plantlife and pretty little cottages too. Visitors will be able to enjoy watching more than 60 different mango varieties grow, while also admiring the ongoing work of the botanical gardens' botanists and researchers.

What couples say about The Kampong

"I frequent the Kampong not only for the beauty, but also because a local yoga teacher — Samantha Reynolds — teaches a gentle vinyasa here regularly. One of the most beautiful places in all of Miami." - erinfischer23,Miami, Florida

"Located in Coconut Grove the Kampong is a 9 acre tropical garden that was once the winter home of David Fairchild and his wife Miriam who was the daughter of Alexander Graham Bell. In 1916 David and Miriam purchased the property from the "Duke of Dade" J.W. Ewan who homesteaded the property and had been living on it
since 1882. David Fairchild was a world wide plant explorer and he created Fairchild Gardens in Coral Gables. He wrote for National Geographic as well as many books about plants. He filled his gardens with plants he collected from around the world when he worked at the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Washington D. C.. He is
responsible for introducing 30,000 plants into the U.S. including soybeans, pistachios, mangos, nectarines, and bamboo. In 1926 the Kampong became the permanent home of the Fairchild's andtThey named the property for a Malay word meaning village. After the deaths of the Fairchild's the property was then purchased by
botanist Dr, Catherine Hauberg Sweeney. She had the property placed on the National Register of Historic Places and in 1985 donated the land to the National Tropical Botanical Garden. This is the only garden outside of Hawaii to be part of the National Tropical Garden.

There are several structures on the Kampong property. The Fairchild Sweeney House which is a mixture of Spanish and Asian architecture . This was the Fairchild's home and is where you check in and pay. You can only tour a small portion of the home as it is mainly used as offices. They are several wonderful pieces of art work
inside including the Garuda, carved from the roots and trunk of a lychee tree. Famous visitors to the house include some of the greatest inventors of the day, Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Edison, and Henry Ford. The Schokman Education Center is an outdoor pavilion that was added in 2007. The Scarborough Dormitory built in 2006
provides 12 beds for visiting researchers and students who come to study the plants. The Barbour Cottage was built in 1926 to provide the Fairchild's guests a place to stay when they visited. The Sausage Tree Cottage was built in 1964 to house guests and is now used by researchers. The Explorers Cottage was the home of curator
David Jones and now hosts education and business groups.The Kampong also contains the second oldest building in it's original location in Miami. It's a cottage that belonged to Dr. Eleanor Galt Simmons who was the first woman doctor in Miami. She purchased the property in 1896 along with her husband Captain Albion Simmons
in 1892 and sold the property to the Fairchilds in 1916. Dr. Simmons treated troops in Miami stationed during the Spanish American War, white and black settlers, and members of the Miccosukee tribe. She traveled by horse or boat through land filled with panthers, rattlesnakes, and alligators.

The grounds of the property contain the plants Fairchild acquired from around the world. You can find rare tropical fruits, cocoplums, over 50 kinds of mango as well as palms and cycads. As you tour the property you can visit the Fairchild's lovely swimming pool with water lilies, waterfall, and coral stone boulders submerged
in it. If you walk past the tennis courts you can make your way to the point which juts out into Biscayne Bay. Surrounded by Royal Palms, it is the exact spot that Miriam gazed at her husband and said "We've got to have this place, David.'" When you gaze at the same view today you will see the high rises of Miami
across the water to Key Biscayne.

While Fairchild Tropical Gardens is a popular tourist attraction not many people know about the Kampong. I held off on visiting because I wasn't sure how it worked. All you need to do is call during their operating hours and make a reservation. The reservation does not need to be a precise time, it's okay to ball park it
but they need to know you are coming. Once you arrive call them on the intercom and they will open the gate. Park and walk up to the house to pay your entrance fee of $15. They will take card or cash. If I came back I would make a point of arriving for a guided tour. You can tour on your own but there is so much to see that I think
you will get more out of the visit if you walk with a guide." - Arielfl,Coconut Creek, Florida

"Once (sometimes twice) a month, a local yoga instructor named Sam Reynolds teaches a class in The Kampong's covered pavilion and it is gorgeous. The Kampong truly is a hidden gem in Miami and practicing yoga here enhances it even further. The gardens and bay are a perfect way to spend a sunny day relaxing and enjoying
nature." - erinfischer23,Miami, Florida

Why The Kampong is a great date spot

"The Kampong is a private garden oasis embedded in an urban jungle. The former estate of a famed botanist, we offer up-close-and-personal tropical landscapes, historic architecture, incredible food history, killer views of the Atlantic Ocean, and ample open space. The Kampong is perfect for a quiet, leisurely and intimate tour.
Once you enter the gate, The Kampong is your personal garden, with rarely more than a few others on the property. Open by appointment only, you can be among the chosen who can experience this hidden, century-old gem." - Craig Morell, Director

What couples say about Coral Gables Museum

"Excellent walking tour of Coral Gables through the city museum. We had no idea there were so many triangle buildings or where the huge mural of the Gables in the 20s was located. Tour is definitely recommended. Our tour guide is a historian & knew so many interesting facts about Gables, South Florida, & the state. We
even joined the museum because of this tour." - earthworm3, Washington DC, District of Columbia

"If you want to know history of the area go here. Excellent display of beginning of the city of coral gables and the staff is knowledgeable Other rooms have great shows also We very much enjoyed this museum and the ability to interact with the museum directors" - Luckydog17, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida

"This past Thursday evening, I visited the marvelous Coral Gables Museum in order to attend the opening of its most recent photography exhibit, The Art of Compassion. This incredibly meaningful and human project celebrates women who have traditionally lived in the shadows - formerly incarcerated women who are re-entering
society. Curated by photographer and producer Starr Sariego, these powerful photographs provide insight in to the lives of formerly incarcerated women, more than 80% of whom were victims of childhood trauma. I highly recommend seeing this important exhibit and applaud Coral Gables Museum for showcasing it. I wish I had seen several
other exhibits that this fine, visionary museum has offered in the past." - Annalisad65

What couples say about Antique Car Museum

"As a Native Floridian, I had never heard of this museum until I saw a Groupon for it and decided to go and check it out on a rainy, mid-summer afternoon.

Upon pulling up to the museum, the building has all kinds of car-related décor plastered on the building. There are two buildings, so MAKE SURE you see both. It is pricey, but oh so WORTH IT!Upon entering, you enter into the dining area, which is actually run by the Ninja Lounge next door (or they actually share a building). The
dining room area is very cool as they took old cars and split them in half and made seating out of it, including the trunks, which is now bench seats.Once you work your way past the dining area, you enter the first building.Once you pass security, you enter a giant showroom housing fast and expensive cars spanning many decades.From
there, the next showroom is all things BATMAN! An extensive collection, but not as big as his 007 collection…INCREDIBLE!There is an Oscar Section housed in a replica Graman’s Chinese Theater. Cars from award-winning movies (lots of them) are in this showroom. Each item is detailed and easy to read.The next room is dedicated to 007.
I never knew so much stuff existed! You name it, Mr. Dezer probably collected it! Wow! Then you enter the rooms with cars and buggies from the turn of the century and work your way up through the decades.There is also a huge jukebox collection, moped/Vespa collection, bicycle collection, motorcycle collection, the list goes on and
on.I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND a visit here. But, make sure you give yourself LOTS OF TIME to take it all in. It is an absolutely INCREDIBLE place and a wonderful journey throughout history.

Florida

"Let me start by saying that I am NOT a car nut; with very few exceptions I can barely tell makers/models apart which drives my husband batty. That being said, I AM a nerd and this car museum absolutely spoke to me on that level, but it also really impressed me with the vast collection of vehicles they've managed to amass.
We started in the 'generic' section of the collection, in one building, which has numerous 'antique' cars that acts a living automotive history class. You could spend a couple of hours wandering just that side/building. Then we crossed over to the other side (building), where the movie collections and special
exhibits are displayed, and there went those socks again. For me, just the Batman section was worth the price of admission. But then we started to tour all the movie cars and it was a trip down memory lane on a very personal level (Chitty-chitty Bang-bang, Harry Potter, Speed Racer, Scooby Doo, ...). And then we hit the Bond
Exhibit and WOW! Just WOW! We could have spent hours in there, because it wasn't just cars, there were other types of vehicles (don't want to spoil the fun), posters, games, figurines, watches, videos, tchotchkes galore, etc. Unless you have absolutely no interest, whatsoever, in cars, movies, and/or memorabilia, you will
definitely enjoy a day at the museum. But go early, because you don't want to be rushed!" - SSH64,Miami, Florida

"We decided to take a break from South Beach and check out he museum. When we arrived we were informed that the classic car section was not available due to remodelling but we went ahead and toured the newer cars and movie car sections. The newer cars were nice but only about 10 to 15 cars. The movie cars were the main
attraction. Lots of batman cars and the James Bond section was huge. There were also lots of TV show cars from the 70's to more current shows. We spent about 2 hours looking at everything. There is a restaurant but we didn't try it. Overall I would recommend it!" - mike75040, Dallas, Texas

Located down on 41st Street and owned by Cuban-born businessman and art enthusiast Carlos de la Cruz, the De La Cruz Collection is a free to enter art museum that always aims to inspire reflection, engagement, and inspiration in the minds and souls of every visitor. Focused on the exchange between the artist and the observer, this
gallery shines the spotlight on some lesser known talents out there, providing an exciting platform for established and aspiring artists to show the world what they can do, and it's always a great place to visit for any art lover.

What couples say about De La Cruz Collection

"The building itself is an impressive space, well suited to the scale of several oversize installations. Museum entrance hidden - essentially unmarked - in a courtyard on the left side of the building - the idea is that one rings the bell as though one were visiting a private residence. As with all contemporary art (my
opinion) some of it is self-indulgent - the artist and thier reviewers believing their own press. Some of it derivative - and some of it is thought provoking. Most of it is interesting. At least, and at best, contemporary art does not shy away from a social point of view. I ended up with what amounted to a private tour / walking
commentary from one of the employees - whether he took an interest in my interest or functioned as a sort of security was never quite clear. But he stayed with me througout, and had a good knowledge of the particular artists, items, installations - and art itself; we spend time discussing various collections we'd both visited -
and ranged from Monet to Turner. It did add to the experience. Fascinating that this was all collected and funded by one gentleman and his wife, still collecting and - one assumes - still fabulously wealthy. Most remarkable of all - it's free! (Applause to the de la Cruz family; what a nice give back)" - scott r,Silver Spring, Maryland

"My wife and I came to Miami to watch a baseball game. I wanted to take her to see some of Miami’s art and culture and we stumbled upon this amazing museum. We spent at least two hours reading about the artists being showcased and viewing some of their pieces of work, What else do you expect to do and a museum right? Multiple
times a staff member would come by and ask if we had questions. A few staff members even took time to explain some of the art and the history behind the pieces from the artists perspective. As we were leaving, coming down the elevator from the third floor, we actually got to meet the owners Rosa and Carlos de la Cruz and chat with
them for a few minutes! What a great museum. A must see!" - Brian M,Orlando, Florida

"I have to admit that I didn't quite know what to expect, but was blown away by this collection.

The de la Cruz Collection occupies three floors of galleries in the Miami Design District in a spatious well-lit building designed by the architect John Marquette.

The collection is owned by the Cuban-born American businessman Carlos de la Cruz and his wife Rosa and includes a wide range of contemporary works including, as you would expect, work by Cuban artists including Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Jorge Pardo, Wilfredo Lam and Ana Mendieta, but also surprisingly by the Scottish artists Peter
Doig and Lucy McKenzie, plus many others from around the world.

Well worth visiting - plus have a look at the artistic parking structure across the road.

"We had a great lunch on the patio. The food was great, as was the service. We enjoyed sitting outside, but the inside of the place is charming, too." - HighExpectationsUSA,USA

"We had 3 breakfasts in Miami and we usually like to try somewhere new everyday, but this place was so good we came back twice and on the second day we ordered six breakfasts between four of us to ensure we properly sampled the menu. Our favourites were the blueberry and granola pancakes, french toast (Nutella or coconut for
something different), and the watermelon lemonade was fantastic! Have a great start to the day here!" - anliz82,Warrington, United Kingdom

Everyone was up and dancing. There is actually space to enjoy dancing. I ordered a few drinks (mainly mojitos) which were very very good. If you take a
close look you will notice that they have a lot of Cuban art hanging up all over the restaurant. I wish I had had time to come back during the day to take a closer look. It just gives me an excuse to come back!" - jennaviles2,New York City, New York

"Just amazing, live music great cocktails, nice latín environment, a little piece of cuba in Miami, the minutos are great" - Gonzalo G, Bogota, Colombia

previously. Excellent find in area and really enjoyed our time in the restaurant." - elvezGlasgow,Glasgow, United Kingdom

Anyone with an interest in aviation, the military, World War II history, or even the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle should be sure to stop on by the Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale Museum. Listed as a Florida Heritage Site and on the National Register of Historic Places, this small but action-packed museum is filled with
fascinating artefacts and memorabilia from the past, dedicated to preserving the memory and honoring the bravery of the men and women stationed in Fort Lauderdale and all those who fought during WW2.

Ft Lauderdale back in December of 1945 and vanished in the Bermuda Triangle.

What couples say about Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale Museum

"Museum is a lot larger than it looks from the outside and is a treasure trove of paraphernalia from the wars. The volunteers that maintain it and provide tours have so much knowledge and interest in showing people around." - Moose1422, Vancouver BC

"The Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale Museum had been on my "must see" list for a long time and during a recent trip to Florida, my husband and I were finally able to go. We cannot say enough great things about the museum, volunteers, exhibits, and pure heart and dedication that was present during our visit. We wish
that we lived closer because we would love to be frequent visitors and volunteers but we hope that everyone will make this an essential stop if you are in the Fort Lauderdale area! Thank you to the hard-working and dedicated staff who gave us an excellent walk-through tour, answered our questions, and even gave us something very
special related to my husband's service that we will treasure forever. Keep up all your hard work and know that there are people out there (of all ages!) that appreciate what you do and will carry the torch of NEVER FORGETTING as the years go on!" - Samantha F

"I have lived in Fla all my life, and never knew about this place until recently. Tucked away in plain sight along I-95 is a building saved from the WWII era. A fascinating museum with loads of naval memorabilia. Great for anyone who was in the Navy, or not. Really amazing seeing the old aerial photos of the Ft Lauderdale area
and how it's grown." - babs W, Coral Springs, Florida

"Great food and atmosphere! If you haven’t been there before highly recommend to go. The food and cocktails were amazing! The band was great as well!!!" - 383tatianar,Orlando

"Four of us came here last night to celebrate my spouse’s birthday. The weather was terrible with monsoon rains but, we powered through. Let me tell you that it was worth the drive in such poor weather conditions to get here! We started out at happy hour. Our bartender was Barbaro. He was wonderful. Between the four of us, we
had 11 or 12 drinks. One was better than the next. My spouse had the daquiri, which was excellent. I had the mojito del dia which was a passion fruit mojito. Delicious. We also had the empanadas de pollo (excellent), fritura de malanga (to die for) and the pan con lechon. If you eat nothing else here, you must eat the lechon,
either at happy hour or for an entree. One of our friends is Cuban and she said it was the best she ever had. It was incredible!

For entrees, two of us had the lechon entree(I swear that’s how good it was) and two of us had the seafood ceviche. Everything was amazing.

The band was fantastic. This whole experience made me think that we were in a night club in Havana. I can’t wait to go back." - Jane R,New York City, New York
